Keith Squires author of the Ayurvedic recipes in Cooking with Love says: “The thing to remember, when eating more vegetarian food, is that pulses in themselves are not a complete protein. in fact, some of the amino acids (the component parts of protein) can be in short supply. This is also the case for most proteins found in grains, nuts and seeds. Mother nature has made it easy though; you can simply combine them. When combined, grains, seeds, nuts and pulses form complete proteins, and provide the right balance of amino acids for our needs.“
